  • Example 9 a preform manufacturing apparatus having the same configuration as that of Example 3 was used.
  • the defect rate of the preform can be reduced by making the receiving surface of the first mold conical. Furthermore, it has been found that the defective rate of the preform can be significantly reduced by rotating the opening / closing direction downward and rotating them in opposite directions.
  • the receiving surface of the first mold was conical, and the opening and closing direction was turned downward and turned in opposite directions.
  • the measurement conditions are as follows.
  • the nozzle tip force of the flow down device is also about 10mm away from the first mold.
  • the temperature of the molten glass flowing down is about 900 ° C
  • Time for the first mold to hold the molten glass block is about 2.0 seconds
  • Example 10 is the same as Example 10 except that the first mold was not used.
  • the measurement results are as follows. According to this example, it has been found that the use of the first mold can prevent the formation of striae. It was also found that popping out of the second mold force during preform formation can be reduced.
  • the operation time of the preform manufacturing equipment can be set in three ways: 50 minutes (1000 evaluation samples), 100 minutes (2000 evaluation samples), and 150 minutes (3000 evaluation samples)! It was measured.
  • the receiving surface of the first mold was plated with gold. Other conditions are the same as in Example 10.
  • a preform manufacturing apparatus having the same configuration as in Example 10 was used.
  • the measurement results are as follows. According to the present invention, it has been found that by applying gold plating to the first mold, seizure and scratches can be reduced and the defect rate can be reduced.
